Your replies PROVE that you have a tenuous grasp, at best, of politics. That you fail to understand that the make up of both Houses , matters , is patently obvious. IT MATTERS; GREATLY ! If it matters to you, who sits on the SCOTUS , then having a Dem run Senate , shoud be the LAST thing you want; yet, this isn't the case. Ditto for the House. Of you yearn for more tax cuts, less government, etc., etc., same thing. This isn't rocket science !
Okay, you are no Conservtaive; now, you need to admit to your Marxism, as well . All of this garbage, about the " elits " and " ruling class ", belies certain juvenile thought processes, that you have. Yes, there it is ... you feel oh so powerless, so irrelivant, and you are. The Founding Fathers agreed with you, in that you don't have enough sense / ability , to be able to actually vote for a president. That's WHY they set up the Electoral College, you know. The FFs were ELITISTS !
There has NEVER been a time, when the " common man " decided which candidte should run for president, not anything else. As a matter of fact, until fairly recently, Senators were hand picked , by the states' " INSIDERS / RULING ELITES ", OF EACH PARTY !
You have claimed that you are pro-life, and think that children are their parents' property . So, do you also disagree with the LP, about prostitution, dope, open boarders, pornography, age of consent / voting , isolationism, almost NO military, private ownership of roads , highways, and public property ? If so, that's some HUGE disagreements !
I won't admit my Marxism because I'm not a Marxist. Of course we will always have an elite ruling class... the issue is what kind of men and women they will be. They must be people who believe in our Constitution. My quarrel isn't with the "elites" in general, but with the kind of people they are now as opposed to the kind of people we need. We don't need conservative or leftist elites; we need Libertarian elites who can understand enlightened self-interest. What might be good for me (not locking up people who smoke pot, for example if I do) might also be good for other people (not locking up people who enjoy an occasional drink if I don't drink but they do). So I agree not to sic the government on you for enjoying your "demon rum" and you agree not to sic them on me for enjoying my "demon weed". (By the way, I don't smoke or drink. This is just and example)
